We consider the unweighted bipartite maximum matching problem in the one-pass turnstile streaming model where the input stream consists of edge insertions and deletions. In the insertion-only model, a one-pass $2$-approximation streaming…
The single-source unsplittable flow (SSUF) problem asks to send flow from a common source to different terminals with unrelated demands, each terminal being served through a single path. One of the most heavily studied SSUF objectives is to…
We bound the smoothed running time of the FLIP algorithm for local Max-Cut as a function of $\alpha$, the arboricity of the input graph. We show that, with high probability and in expectation, the following holds (where $n$ is the number of…
We introduce a new problem that combines the well known All Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) problem and the All Pairs Bottleneck Paths (APBP) problem to compute the shortest paths for all pairs of vertices for all possible flow amounts. We call…
One of the classical line of work in graph algorithms has been the Replacement Path Problem: given a graph $G$, $s$ and $t$, find shortest paths from $s$ to $t$ avoiding each edge $e$ on the shortest path from $s$ to $t$. These paths are…
In 2010s Fleiner introduced a notion of stable flows in directed networks and showed that such a flow always exists and can be found by use of a reduction to the stable allocation problem due to Baiou and Balinski. Recently Cseh and…
The Max-Flow Min-Cut theorem is the classical duality result for the Max-Flow problem, which considers flow of a single commodity. We study a multiple commodity generalization of Max-Flow in which flows are composed of real-valued k-vectors…
We combine the well known Shortest Paths (SP) problem and the Bottleneck Paths (BP) problem to introduce a new problem called the Shortest Paths for All Flows (SP-AF) problem that has relevance in real life applications. We first solve the…
Let $G$ be a planar $3$-graph (i.e., a planar graph with vertex degree at most three) with $n$ vertices. We present the first $O(n^2)$-time algorithm that computes a planar orthogonal drawing of $G$ with the minimum number of bends in the…
A minimum cycle basis of a weighted undirected graph $G$ is a basis of the cycle space of $G$ such that the total weight of the cycles in this basis is minimized. If $G$ is a planar graph with non-negative edge weights, such a basis can be…
We present a new algorithm for approximating the number of triangles in a graph $G$ whose edges arrive as an arbitrary order stream. If $m$ is the number of edges in $G$, $T$ the number of triangles, $\Delta_E$ the maximum number of…
We give O(log^2 n)-approximation algorithm based on the cut-matching framework of [10, 13, 14] for computing the sparsest cut on directed graphs. Our algorithm uses only O(log^2 n) single commodity max-flow computations and thus breaks the…
For an undirected $n$-vertex planar graph $G$ with non-negative edge-weights, we consider the following type of query: given two vertices $s$ and $t$ in $G$, what is the weight of a min $st$-cut in $G$? We show how to answer such queries in…
We examine directed spanners through flow-based linear programming relaxations. We design an $\~O(n^{2/3})$-approximation algorithm for the directed $k$-spanner problem that works for all $k\geq 1$, which is the first sublinear…
In the decremental single-source shortest paths problem, the goal is to maintain distances from a fixed source $s$ to every vertex $v$ in an $m$-edge graph undergoing edge deletions. In this paper, we conclude a long line of research on…
Currently, the best known tradeoff between approximation ratio and complexity for the Sparsest Cut problem is achieved by the algorithm in [Sherman, FOCS 2009]: it computes $O(\sqrt{(\log n)/\varepsilon})$-approximation using…
An instance of the Connected Maximum Cut problem consists of an undirected graph G = (V, E) and the goal is to find a subset of vertices S $\subseteq$ V that maximizes the number of edges in the cut \delta(S) such that the induced graph…
We give an algorithm with complexity $O(f(R)^{k^2} k^3 n)$ for the integer multiflow problem on instances $(G,H,r,c)$ with $G$ an acyclic planar digraph and $r+c$ Eulerian. Here, $f$ is a polynomial function, $n = |V(G)|$, $k = |E(H)|$ and…
Traditionally, the quality of orthogonal planar drawings is quantified by either the total number of bends, or the maximum number of bends per edge. However, this neglects that in typical applications, edges have varying importance.…
We study the maximum matching problem in the random-order semi-streaming setting. In this problem, the edges of an arbitrary $n$-vertex graph $G=(V, E)$ arrive in a stream one by one and in a random order. The goal is to have a single pass…
